Accepted Answer

The Ministry Has Not Received Official Corruption Complaints

The Ministry in the Chief Minister’s Department (Integrity and Ombudsman) has not received any official complaints regarding corruption. While accusations have surfaced on social media platforms like Facebook, no formal complaints have been lodged with the ministry or the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC). This statement comes from Minister in the Chief Minister’s Department (Integrity and Ombudsman) Datuk Talib Zulpilip, who asserted that Gabungan Parti Sarawak (GPS) state assemblymen are not involved in corruption related to government development projects.
No Formal Complaints Filed

Despite accusations circulating on Facebook concerning alleged corruption involving state assemblymen, no official complaints have been submitted to the relevant authorities. Datuk Talib Zulpilip specifically addressed claims suggesting that state assemblymen might have misappropriated funds allocated for the Rural Transformation Project (RTP). He reiterated that these remain unsubstantiated allegations without formal backing.
Safeguards Against Misappropriation

Datuk Talib Zulpilip explained the mechanisms in place to prevent the misappropriation of funds for government development projects. For initiatives like the Rural Transformation Project (RTP), funds are channelled through the Resident’s Office, and the projects themselves are closely monitored by this office. Furthermore, tenders for government development projects are conducted openly and involve a draw system, which further mitigates the risk of funds being misused.
Investigation into Rhythmic Fountain Project

Regarding the rhythmic fountain project situated in front of the Sarawak State Assembly Building, Datuk Talib Zulpilip confirmed that the Department of Audit has undertaken an investigation into the matter. He dismissed concerns surrounding this project as mere accusations aimed at undermining the state government's image.
